And if HE created ME, Why would some people dessecrate HIS Holy CREATION by insulting ME and calling ME names?
If I decide to give God the finger, doesn't that happen because it was the will of God to happen? And what good is it to be a pious person if God has already decided who's going to heaven and who's going to hell? Do those that repent go against God's will?

You are defintely blessed because not only are you God's creation but you are HIS!!!!
God gives everyone the freedom of choice. If you decided to give God the finger, that was your choice not the will of God. The will of God is to shun evil and do what is right. Turn the other cheek, that is the will of God.
There is not one perfect person on earth. That is why God has given us the opportunity to repent for our sins. That is why Jesus was sent to us. He died on the cross so that we may have the right to the tree of life...Read the bible and get the full understanding of how much God loves you

The bible says "it is GOD's will that none should perish but have everlasting life." It's not GOD's will that you give Him the finger, but He knows if you are, or have or will. He is very hurt that His creations treat Him in such a way. All other religions demand sacrificing your lives by flying jets into buildings or drinking cynanide laced Kool-Aid (Jim Jones) but our LORD only asks that you believe and confess in His son to be saved and have everlasting life with HIm in heaven...
But some people desecrate His temple(referring to you) because GOD gave all living people free will.
GOD hasn't decided who will go to Hell and who won't. It is His desire that all go live with Him, but in His great forknowlede He already knows who will accept and who won't and who will give Him the finger.

Praise HIS name! (You coulda been not interested...)
First of all not everyone gives GOD HIS place. The Will of GOD is awesome. He loves us no matter what. It is our choice if you give Him the finger. If you have accepted Jesus Christ into your heart you are a new man ( woman). When you accept Him into your heart the Holy Spirit has a place to work in you now. Old things become unappealing. It is not pious, it is the joy of Jesus now. YOU decide by accepting Jesus into your heart whether you go to heaven or hell. By accepting Him into your heart gives you salvation. You are now saved. Repentance is a form of prayer. There is the prayer of thanksgiving, where we are thankful. The prayer of petition where we ask Him for what we would like Him to supply us with. The prayer of fellowship where we just hang out and talk to Him.The prayer of consecration where we give it all to Him. Today God, is yours and I am yours to do whatever you want to do today! (HIS will it what I choose). And then the prayer of repentance... "I am sorry for(exactly what you did that you know was out of line GOD"; if you have to guess...well, talk to HIM)
HE is a forgiving and Faithful GOD. A jealous GOD( HE wants all the glory). I thought if I accepted Jesus into my heart all my good days would be over. I was dreadfully wrong. (When you (finally) give your heart to Jesus, Life is not the same! I am divorced and HE still loves me. HE makes a way for me continually. I prayed for my own place less than a year ago, and I have NO job... but GOD has provided me with a 2 bedroom apartment. Found that out this week....Go figure.. He is omnicipant. HE knows and can do all. So who in their right mind wouldn't want to be HIS best friend? All the perks of Life and guaranteed a place alongside Him in heaven. C'mon ...join us Christians and live! All you have to do is ask Him into your heart. Tell Him you believe HE died for our sins rose again and is the King of King! Lord of Lords.. see Romans 10:9...My bible is in my car, UGH got to carry it all the time. Hope this helps you.. see you in Heaven. Amen.

You are but some people have a misguided belief about God. They see him as a deity when in fact he is the cosmic consciousness-connected to every living thing in the universe.

yes God created everything that was created. The real question is have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior. that is what free will is all about. You have the free will to accept or reject Jesus. To accept you are entered into the lambs book of life. to reject you are condemned for rejecting Gods free gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ His son. Who willingly became a man and gave his life for us. as an atonement for our sins.

Don't forget about free will. God has His will and we have our own.
